Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi
Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
By adding wāw and tā’ at the end of {مَلَكُوْتَ: ’’ مُلْكٌ ‘‘}, it is stated as {’’ مَلَكُوْتَ ‘‘}; the purpose of adding letters is to increase the meaning, therefore it has been translated as "great dominion." The meaning is that just as we have refuted shirk in the previous verses, likewise, We showed Ibrahim (peace be upon him) the great dominion of the heavens and the earth, among whose many purposes was also that he would attain the eyewitness certainty of tawheed. Similarly, he was also shown how Allah Almighty gives life to the dead.
